“Some of those will be purely be about structure and facilities, to help the team become a winning team.

“Others will be to keep players who need to stay with us a bit longer.”

But Martinez is still expected to see his transfer kitty swell this summer.

“And other decisions will be to bring players into an environment they can really embrace and take the football club to the next level,” he confirmed.

“It is almost changing the direction of the perception of Everton from the outside because we are going to be able to reinforce all the good things we have and then bring that new vision into where we want to get.

“It fits really well into where the chairman and I wanted to take the football club but, clearly, with Farhad Moshiri coming in, it is almost a new era and beginning within those same aims and ambitions.”

Everton rebuffed the advances of Chelsea last summer who launched a dogged pursuit of Stones.

The young defender also handed in a transfer request but it was rejected by the club.

Martinez has regularly praised the work of chairman Bill Kenwright in ensuring Stones stayed and the manager says Moshiri will only strengthen the club’s resolve.

“We had very good moments so far the football club but there are areas in which we can become better and that is where you can see the excitement.

“All of a sudden, we will be very good in every aspect we want to be in.

“It is almost starting a new period in the process we had. It could accelerate everything that we want to achieve and so from that point of view, it is an incredible opportunity for us as a football club.

“But, at the same time, every Evertonian should be very safe in the thinking that the person coming in is an incredible profile for our football club.”
